    If the actual version (1.5.2) is cool, the V2 Beta 3 is awesome. Fully recommend it.

    So useful when you have no administrative rights and when you use several computers !

    New to the Open Source world. LOVING the Open Source world! Inexperienced user, but I have to say, after a few tests, most of the Portable versions of the apps available work even BETTER than their 'installer' versions. VLC Player in particular works MUCH better as portable - handles HD video files MUCH better, accesses the timeline ASTONISHINGLY well with virtually no lag. Like someone else has said, only 'problem' now is buying a big USB stick! I think if they develop UNIX/LINUX Portable, Micro$oft and Apple will be VERY worried.. which can only be a good thing for us end users! GET THIS NOW!
